Worth it

This is one of the few top rope routes at this crag worth doing. It is a great climb super laid back to the crux, super laid back after. It is a one move wonder with a million different ways to get thru the crux.

Life's a beach

Featuring newly bolted anchors! Like Hawaii 5-0 next to it, the start is a bit tricky, although be careful to avoid the mossy crud at the first step or you'll be kicking yourself later when your slick feet won't stick to the smooth wall. The crux is definitely after the 2nd bolt. I didn't quite make it all the way up w/o cheating and using a draw since the key crimp was wet. Looking forward to going back and working it out. Fun and varied!

As an added bonus a crow had decided to build a monster nest in the chimney between this and Hawaii 5-0. It would fly in and bring sticks when no one was on the wall then had an uncanny knack for blasting out (with a loud WHOOSH) when someone was struggling through the crux. It would then land on a nearby branch and glare at us until it decided to go grab some more sticks. Very loud flying out but eerily silent going in, so that we often missed it's return. It was like the cave was a crow clown car with a million of them appearing from seeming nowhere...

The Wave

The Michelin Man effect is really interesting visually, but quite difficult to climb. Next time make sure to stay low on the traverse left at the 2nd bolt to be able to utilize the small shelf with your hands before moving up. Had to stop and rest once b/c I got stuck.
